File Sharing by Lawyers Largely Insecure, Survey Suggests, by Robert Ambrogi, Robert Ambrogi’s Law Sites
If I were to leave a document on a table entitled, ‘My Deepest, Darkest Secrets,’ under which I wrote, ‘Please do not read this unless you are someone I intended to read this,’ how securely would you think I’d protected myself?
That, effectively, is all the majority of lawyers do to protect confidential documents they share with clients and colleagues, according to a LexisNexis survey published this week. . . .

Dropbox Publishes New T&Cs That Anger Users, by Jamie Hicks, ITProPortal
Dropbox has announced that it plans updates to its Terms of Service and Privacy Policy, effective March 24, 2014. Highlights of these changes are:
• The addition of an arbitration section has angered many of its users. Dropbox has provided an online form to opt out of this section 30 days after the new Terms of Service and Privacy Policy go into effect.
• The Privacy Policy now contains Dropbox’s recently launched Government Data Request Principles. When you allow Dropbox access to your contacts, Dropbox says that it stores them so that you (and only you) can share with others more easily.
• The Terms of Service and Privacy Policy has been revised to simplify its language and to explain its list of features.
The arbitration clause language added to the Terms and Conditions has generated the most criticism. (See Dropbox Blog @ https://blog.dropbox.com/2014/02/updating-our-terms-of-service/, posted by Ramsey Homsany. This section is viewed by its critics as designed to defeat class action litigation by urging users to opt out. -CCE

Access All Your Clouds with One Login, by Robert Ambrogi, Robert Ambrogi’s LawSites
If you’re at all like me, your life is dispersed across multiple cloud platforms. I have documents on Drive, Dropbox and Box. I have notes in Evernote. I have photos on Instagram, Picasa and Flickr. Wouldn’t it be nice if you could access all these cloud services through a single interface and a single login?
Well, you can. In fact, there are a number of applications that let you do this. Some are paid and some are free. I have been trying two of the free services, Jolidrive and CloudKafe.
